I'm guessing a lot of their family members have left reviews here. It's not a good place guys…read more They charge around 400 reais ($80) for 3 meals which is exorbitant in Brazil. You'd think they could get better proteins for that price. The proteins are substandard, stringy and full of cartilage and connective tissue. The cuts of meat that they use require low and slow heating, but they get the rapid, high heat wok treatment instead. The worst part is they use styrofoam containers for their delivery service and they pour the dish into the styrofoam while it's boiling hot. The styrofoam melts and becomes part of your meal which is evidenced by little white dots suspended in your meal once it cools. Imagino que muitos familiares deles deixaram avaliações aqui. Não é um bom lugar, pessoal. Eles cobram cerca de 400 reais (US$ 80) por 3 refeições, o que é exorbitante no Brasil. Você pensaria que eles conseguiriam proteínas melhores por esse preço. As proteínas são de baixa qualidade, fibrosas e cheias de cartilagem e tecido conjuntivo. Os cortes de carne que eles usam precisam de aquecimento baixo e lento, mas recebem o tratamento wok rápido e em alta temperatura. A pior parte é que eles usam recipientes de isopor para o serviço de entrega e despejam o prato no isopor enquanto está fervendo. O isopor derrete e passa a fazer parte da sua refeição, o que fica evidente por pequenos pontos brancos suspensos na refeição quando ela esfria

They offer authentic Chinese (Shanghai) dishes, some, only found at China Lake, but if you are not to keen about authenticity, this place also caters not so authentic public, with options like sweet and sour, kung pao chicken, etc... Been coming here over 15 years and they have always been consistent!

Apesar de já ter passado na frente desse restaurante várias vezes, nunca entrei para provar pq o aspecto externo do prédio era muito simples e eu nunca tinha ouvido recomendações a respeito do lugar- puro preconceito meu pq o lugar vale a pena conhecer. Provei apenas dois pratos, mas já deu pra perceber que o chefe sabe bem o que está fazendo. A comida estava bem feita. Apenas achei o cardápio bastante "ocidentalizado", com muitas opções como frango xadrez e lombo agridoce, q na verdade são pratos pouco escolhidos por chineses quando comem fora. Os preços não são caros mas já vi chinês bem mais em conta. O atendimento é bom, abrem aos domingos e se vc mora na região, tb entregam em casa... Obaaaaa!!!

I lived in Sao Paulo for 5 months. All I wanted was some Thai food…read more Someone recommended Tian to me, and much to my delight, we ended up moving into Itaim, just a few blocks from it! First off, this is legit Thai. The dishes are authentic and delicious. They have wonderful cocktails. They have lots of vegetarian options!!! We frequented this restaurant several time during our stay in Brasil. The food was always delicious, though the service would range from fabulous to nonexistent. A few times my veggie tom kha soup had to be sent back because it arrived with chicken in it. (And trust me, we ordered in Portuguese.) However, despite the occasional mistakes, and the occasional rude server, we still loved the restaurant. They have great lunch specials as well! A must try if you love Thai.

Well, the first time I went here I was impressed by the ambiance and the chic decor. I went with a…read morecouple friends and we ordered four plates, the only one that stood out was the lamb curry. I am big fan of Thai food and was really looking forward to those bold flavors. The experience was nice but nothing special. My husband and I decided to go back this weekend so I could determine if maybe it was just the chef that night that didn't deliver what was expected. Honestly the environment is so relaxing it's hard not to want to dine here. We tried to order the lamb curry and they "were out". We thought okay this is opportunity to order some completely different plates. We ordered the duck curry and efu noodles. The food arrived and the curry looked and smelled delicious, as soon as we took our first bite we both agreed it was lacking that tangy kick , it had the spice but nothing else, barely even any flavor. We were surprised because it smelled so good! We asked for lime and salt to add ourselves which made it much better. The noodles were so so and overall I was a disappointed and we probably won't be coming back but I will say the restaurant is beautiful, relaxing, and romantic and the staff is very warm and helpful. They just need to get a chef that contributes to the wonderful setup they have there.

They have knife-shaved noodles!!!…read more The noodles are authentic, hand-made, perfectly chewy (qq for the Chinese folk out there). They rival noodles I have had in California, and are even better than some places I have been to in California. I love their soup noodles, but especially their fried seafood noodle. Their delivery is also great, as they will pack the noodles separately from the soup to keep them from being overcooked and soggy. The "chive box" was very good (I am not sure what the name is in English, but it's a flattened dumpling that is fried, filled with chive and egg and little shrimp). This restaurant is super authentic and I highly recommend coming to try it! I literally could move to Sao Paulo, now that I know there is a place to fulfill my noodle addiction.

I don't know how authentic the Japanese food is here, as I had ordered this sashimi combo on a boat.

The food wasn't amazing, but it was pretty good. Sort of a strange all you can eat as they bring you a bunch of things first, and then you order other items afterwards. We were brought a bunch of items we didn't really want, so sort of wasteful. I ordered salmon and tuna nigiri and was brought salmon nigiri and a weak tuna roll. Not exactly what I asked for, and my friends are Brazilian so it wasn't a language barrier. Just weird service, I guess.
